Whelp… tonight I attempted to add a brass tip to the bare wood ramrod of my trade gun.
I THOUGHT I made the measurements correct, but it ended up being much too short:
As you can see, the end of the tip is not flush with the muzzle. It’s bothering me tremendously. I fear I’ll have to make a new ramrod from scratch because of this.
Does this kind of stuff bother anyone else? How bad/off does this look to you?
